Yes, this will affect local numbers including 417, 660 and 816 area codes.

The AC R-II School District is placing Proposition KIDS on the April 6 ballot. The district is asking the patrons of the school district to authorize an increase in the operating levy by $.50 per one hundred dollars of their assessed valuation through the year 2040. These funds would allow the district to provide funds for repair and replacement of roofs, upgrades to heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems; improving and upgrading handicap accessibility district-wide; remodeling of the elementary school, improving and expanding the agriculture facilities in the district, completion of other renovations and repair improvements to existing facilities, and to meet the additional operating needs of the district. They will host round-table forums during March for the community to learn more about this levy and its impact on the school. These sessions will include personal Q/A sessions and a visual presentation. The committee has also created a Facebook page which can be found by searching "Appleton City Proposition KIDS." Information, including pictures and videos of current issues at the school, can be found online at https://acr2levy.weebly.com/ Forums are scheduled for Wednesday, March 24, Rockville City Hall, 6:00-7:00 p.m. and Sunday, March 28, ACHS Gym, 3:00-4:00 p.m.

University of Missouri Extension and Care Connection for Aging Services has scheduled 3 virtual Chronic Disease Self-Management Program and Diabetes Self-Management workshop in two different formats to help participants achieve their personal health care goals in 2021. Both of these free courses – Chronic Disease Self-Management (in both phone and ZOOM delivery) and Diabetes Self-Management - are part of the “Living a Healthy Life” series developed by Stanford University’s Patient Education Research Center. This course series is based on the assumption that people with chronic diseases have similar concerns and challenges and can find common ways to achieve personal goals through a review of materials in a discussion based format. These once-a-week six week interactive workshops will discuss with participants problems caused by chronic disease and introduce principles and, potentially, new approaches to chronic disease self-management. These free 6-week courses will allow workshop participants to discuss strategies to take care of their chronic health condition, communicate better with health care providers and incorporate healthful tools into their lives.
Over the course of six weeks, MU Extension and Care Connection for Aging Services instructors will help class participants learn more about healthy eating, physical activity, decision-making, understanding emotions and stress management, problem-solving, action-planning, and communicating and working with healthcare professionals. Although these courses are not taught from a medical standpoint and instructors will not be able to provide information on medical care, course participants will learn more about ways to discuss medications and care options with their health care providers. Each course registrant will be provided a free copy of a self-study Living a Healthy Life workbook as a reference for additional study and healthcare planning. The course offerings include: Living a Healthy Life TOOLKIT - A telephone-based self-study/self-paced course.
The course will be from April 9 to May 14 and a certified instructor will call each participant on Friday between 9:30-10:30 a.m. and discuss materials reviewed the previous week. Living a Healthy Life ZOOM course - A traditional discussion-based course delivered virtually by ZOOM from April 29 – June 3 between 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Diabetes Self-Management ZOOM course - A traditional discussion-based course focused specifically on diabetes with persons and caregivers addressing the unique challenges of achieving goals while managing diabetes. The course addresses issues related to nutrition, exercise and improving communication with friends, family and healthcare providers.
This course will be delivered virtually by ZOOM on Tuesdays from April 20 – May 25 between 11 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. Pre-registration is required in order to get the free workbook and ZOOM links required to participate in these courses. Participants can register for each of these courses by calling 1-800-748-7826 or at www.goaging.org. When you call, please make sure to define which course(s) you want to register for, so they reserve your space. For questions, do not hesitate to contact MU Extension instructor Susan Jones-Hard at joneshards@missouri.edu or calling 660-885-5556.
